This patch allows to configure the DAC resolution in the constructor and
in the init function, eg:
dac = DAC(1, bits=12).
The default resolution is 8 bits for backwards compatibility. The bits
sets the maximum value accepted by write and write_timed methods, being
2**bits - 1.
When using write_timed with 12-bit resolution, the input buffer is
treated as an unsigned half-word array, typecode 'H'.
See PR #1130 for discussion.
Use CTRL-E to enter paste mode. Prompt starts with "===" and accepts
all characters verbatim, echoing them back. Only control characters are
CTRL-C which cancels the input and returns to normal REPL, and CTRL-D
which ends the input and executes it. The input is executed as though
it were a file. The input is not added to the prompt history.
This fix adds PIDs 9801 and 9802 to the pybcdc.inf file.
When in CDC only mode, it presents itself as a Communcations
device rather than as a composite device. Presenting as a
composite device with only the CDC interface seems to confuse
windows.
To test and make sure that the correct pybcdc.inf was being used,
I used USBDeview from http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html
to uninstall any old pyboard drivers (Use Control-F and search
for pyboard). I found running USBDeview as administrator worked best.
Installing the driver in CDC+MSC mode first is recommended (since the
pybcdc.inf file in on the internal flash drive). Then when you switch
modes everything seems to work properly.
I used https://github.com/dhylands/upy-examples/blob/master/boot_switch.py
to easily switch the pyboard between the various USB modes for testing.
With this patch parse nodes are allocated sequentially in chunks. This
reduces fragmentation of the heap and prevents waste at the end of
individually allocated parse nodes.
Saves roughly 20% of RAM during parse stage.
There is an issue sending 1 byte on the SPI bus using DMA, but it only
occurs when the transmit is done for the first time after initialising
the SPI and DMA peripherals. All other cases (sending 2 or more bytes,
doing send_recv, doing recv first) work okay. We sidestep this issue by
using polling (not DMA) for all 1 byte transfers. This is fine because
a 1 byte transfer can't be interrupted and doesn't need the benefits of
DMA (and using polling for this case is more efficient).
Resolves#1456.
Fetch the current usb mode and return a string representation when
pyb.usb_mode() is called with no args. The possible string values are interned
as qstr's. None will be returned if an incorrect mode is set.
